Diana Ross reels off the hits during legends slot at Glastonbury (Harrow Times)

A huge audience gathered to watch the 78-year-old star on the Pyramid Stage.

Earlier on Saturday, the Pyramid Stage hosted a speech by Greta Thunberg where she called on society to take on its “historic responsibility to set things right” with the global climate crisis. Earlier on Sunday, George Ezra confirmed he was the secret guest on the John Peel stage on Sunday, three days after pulling out of Tinderbox Festival in Denmark due to a “nasty bout of laryngitis”. The US rapper will be the last performer to take to the Pyramid Stage, concluding the festivities at Worthy Farm in Somerset. A slideshow of photos were shown to the crowd from Ross’s long career in the build-up to her appearance on stage – which was met with loud cheers from the audience. The soul singer treated the crowd to a selection of classics including Baby Love, You Can’t Hurry Love, Stop! In The Name Of Love and at the conclusion of Chain Reaction pink confetti was launched from the stage. Soul singer Diana Ross told the thousands gathered at the Pyramid Stage to “feel the power of love” as she reeled off hit after hit.

Diana Ross brings Motown glamour to Glastonbury (BBC News)

The star brings a huge crowd to the Pyramid Stage as she plays a career-spanning greatest hits show.

Like Paul McCartney, who headlined the Pyramid Stage on Saturday night, Ross's voice betrayed the signs of her advancing years. "You've got to put your body into it," she exclaimed. Parton attracted the festival's largest-ever audience in 2014; while Minogue's triumphant performance was watched by 3.9 million TV viewers. The irresistible funk even encouraged the statuesque Ross to abandon her spot behind the microphone and shuffle down to the audience for a little shoulder shimmy. That joy was reflected back from the audience, who belted out Supremes classics like Can't Hurry Love, Baby Love and Stop In The Name Of Love ("I've got a lot of songs about love, because everything we do is about love," Ross noted) as well as later solo hits like Chain Reaction and Love Hangover. Often portrayed as a diva, she spoke openly about the difficulties of lockdown - "I'm going to call it a vacation, a gap year, because I don't want to say what it really did" - and confessed the need for a lyric sheet when she sang the title track of last year's Thank You album.

Confidently filling the traditional Sunday 'legends' slot at the festival, the fabulously attired Motown and disco star treated the vast crowd to hit after ...

“Well,” she clarifies, “I feel 48 years old.” She’s also clearly not a woman to miss a sales opportunity. “If I can move my body like this when I’m 48 years old … ” she says, her voice trailing off as she demonstrates a dancefloor shimmy. Upside Down, however, provides the required Sunday legend slot explosion of joy complete with obligatory footage of the security at the front of the stage dancing, while Ain’t No Mountain High Enough does what I’m Still Waiting couldn’t and provokes a widespread outbreak of delighted bellowing along.

Diana Ross, Glastonbury 2022, review: This limp Legends slot did ... (iNews)

The Queen of Motown finally took to the stage for the Teatime Legends slot two years after she was first announced on the billing, but her set didn't pop.

We cannot lay the blame solely at the feet of Ms Ross. The sound seemed to be off on its own special little trip which made for a very frustrating Pyramid Stage experience. She is no stranger to striking a pose and it’s just as well, as the main thrust of her performance involved a quick shoulder shimmy and a half raise of the arms, as if to say “well done” to the crowd for joining in. It is a truth universally acknowledged that no matter where you stand in a crowd at Glastonbury, you will be behind a group of lads getting on it.
